This book was released on 2012-08-07 with total page 564 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The content of this volume has been added to eMagRes (formerly Encyclopedia of Magnetic Resonance) - the ultimate online resource for NMR and MRI. Over the past 20 years technical developments in superconducting magnet technology and instrumentation have increased the potential of NMR spectroscopy so that it is now possible to study a wide range of solid materials. In addition, one can probe the nuclear environments of many other additional atoms that possess the property of spin. In particular, it is possible to carry out NMR experiments on isotopes that have nuclear spin greater that ½ (i.e. quadrupolar nuclei). Since more that two-thirds of all NMR active isotopes are quadrupolar nuclei, applications of NMR spectroscopy with quadrupolar nuclei are increasing rapidly. The purpose of this handbook is to provide under a single cover the fundamental principles, techniques and applications of quadrupolar NMR as it pertains to solid materials. Each chapter has been prepared by an expert who has made significant contributions to out understanding and appreciation of the importance of NMR studies of quadrupolar nuclei in solids. The text is divided into three sections: The first provides the reader with the background necessary to appreciate the challenges in acquiring and interpreting NMR spectra of quadrupolar neclei in solids. The second presents cutting-edge techniques and methodology for employing these techniques to investigate quadrupolar nuclei in solids. The final section explores applications of solid-state NMR studies of solids ranging from investigations of dynamics, characterizations of biological samples, organic and inorganic materials, porous materials, glasses, catalysts, semiconductors and high-temperature superconductors. About EMR Handbooks / eMagRes Handbooks The Encyclopedia of Magnetic Resonance (up to 2012) and eMagRes (from 2013 onward) publish a wide range of online articles on all aspects of magnetic resonance in physics, chemistry, biology and medicine.

Download or read book NMR Spectroscopy of Exotic Quadrupolar Nuclei in Solids written by Alexandra Faucher and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This thesis is concerned with NMR studies of solids containing NMR-active quadrupolar nuclei typically overlooked due to their unfavorable NMR properties, particularly moderate to large nuclear electric quadrupole moments. It is shown that 75As, 87Sr, and 121/123Sb NMR spectra of a wide range of solid materials can be obtained. Traditional 1D pulse sequences (e.g., Bloch pulse, spin echo, QCPMG) are used alongside new methods (e.g., WURST echo, WURST-QCPMG) to acquire the NMR spectra; the advantages of these new methods are illustrated. Most of these NMR spectra were acquired at an external magnetic field strength of B0 = 21.14 T. Central transition (mI = 1/2 to -1/2) linewidths of half-integer quadrupolar nuclei of up to a breadth of ca. 32 MHz are obtained at B0 = 21.14 T, demonstrating that nuclear sites with large nuclear quadrupolar coupling constants can be characterized. Many of the NMR spectra contained in this research depict situations in which the nuclear quadrupolar interaction is on the order of or exceeds the magnitude of the Zeeman interaction, thus rendering the high-field approximation invalid and requiring exact treatment in which the full Zeeman-quadrupolar Hamiltonian is diagonalized in order to properly simulate the NMR spectra and extract NMR parameters. It is also shown that both direct (Reff) and indirect (J) spin-spin coupling between quadrupolar nuclei can be quantified in some circumstances, and that the signs of the isotropic indirect spin-spin coupling and the nuclear quadrupolar coupling constants can be obtained experimentally in cases of high-field approximation breakdown. This research represents a relatively large and valuable contribution to the available 75As, 87Sr, and 121/123Sb NMR data in the literature. For example, experimentally determined chemical shift anisotropy is reported for the 87Sr nucleus in a powdered solid for the first time, and the NMR parameters for 11B-75As spin-spin coupling constants reported here add to a sparse collection of information on quadrupolar spin-pairs. Overall, this research is a step towards the goal of utilizing the entire NMR periodic table for the characterization of molecular and crystallographic structure as well as structural dynamics.

Book excerpt: Solid State NMR A thorough and comprehensive textbook covering the theoretical background, experimental approaches, and major applications of solid-state NMR spectroscopy Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is a powerful non-destructive technique capable of providing information about the molecular structure and dynamics of molecules. Alongside solution-state NMR, a well-established technique to study chemical structures and investigate physico-chemical properties of molecules in solutions, solid-state NMR (SSNMR) offers many exciting possibilities for the analysis of solid and soft materials across scientific fields. SSNMR shows unique capabilities for a detailed investigation of structural and dynamic properties of materials over wide space and time ranges. For this reason, and thanks to significant advances in the past several years, the application of SSNMR to materials is rapidly increasing in disciplines such as chemistry, physics, and materials and life sciences. Solid State NMR: Principles, Methods, and Applications offers a systematic introduction to the theory, methodological concepts, and major experimental methods of SSMR spectroscopy. Exploring the unique potential of SSNMR for the structural and dynamic characterization of soft and either amorphous or crystalline solid materials, this comprehensive textbook provides foundational knowledge and recent developments of SSNMR, covering physical and theoretical background, experimental methods, and applications to pharmaceuticals, polymers, inorganic and hybrid materials, liquid crystals, and model membranes.

Download or read book Modern Methods in Solid state NMR written by Paul Hodgkinson and published by Royal Society of Chemistry. This book was released on 2018-04-05 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Solid-state NMR covers an enormous range of material types and experimental techniques. Although the basic instrumentation and techniques of solids NMR are readily accessible, there can be significant barriers, even for existing experts, to exploring the bewildering array of more sophisticated techniques. In this unique volume, a range of experts in different areas of modern solid-state NMR explain about their area of expertise, emphasising the “practical aspects” of implementing different techniques, and illustrating what questions can and cannot be addressed. Later chapters address complex materials, showing how different NMR techniques discussed in earlier chapters can be brought together to characterise important materials types. The volume as a whole focusses on topics relevant to the developing field of “NMR crystallography” – the use of solids NMR as a complement to diffraction crystallography. This book is an ideal complement to existing introductory texts and reviews on solid-state NMR. New researchers wanting to understand new areas of solid-state NMR will find each chapter to be the equivalent to spending time in the laboratory of an internationally leading expert, learning the hints and tips that make the difference between knowing about a technique and being ready to put it into action. With no equivalent on the market, it will be of interest to every solid-state NMR researcher (academic and postgraduate) working in the chemical sciences.

Download or read book Solid State NMR Spectroscopy written by Melinda J. Duer and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-04-15 with total page 592 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is for those familiar with solution-state NMR who are encountering solid-state NMR for the first time. It presents the current understanding and applications of solid-state NMR with a rigorous but readable approach, making it easy for someone who merely wishes to gain an overall impression of the subject without details. This dual requirement is met through careful construction of the material within each chapter. The book is divided into two parts: "Fundamentals" and "Further Applications." The section on Fundamentals contains relatively long chapters that deal with the basic theory and practice of solid-state NMR. The essential differences and extra scope of solid-state NMR over solution-state is dealt with in an introductory chapter. The basic techniques that all chapters rely on are collected into a second chapter to avoid unnecessary repetition later. Remaining chapters in the "Fundamentals" part deal with the major areas of solid-state NMR which all solid-state NMR spectroscopists should know about. Each begins with an overview of the topic that puts the chapter in context. The basic principles upon which the techniques in the chapter rely are explained in a separate section. Each of these chapters exemplifies the principles and techniques with the applications most commonly found in current practice. The "Further Applications" section contains a series of shorter chapters which describe the NMR techniques used in other, more specific areas. The basic principles upon which these techniques rely will be expounded only if not already in the Fundamentals part.

Download or read book Solid State Nuclear Magnetic Resonance of Exotic Quadrupolar Nuclei as a Direct Probe of Molecular Structure in Organic Ionic Solids written by Kevin Burgess and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past decade, the field of NMR spectroscopy has seen the emergence of ever more powerful superconducting magnets, which has opened the door for the observation of many traditionally challenging or non-receptive nuclei. In this dissertation, a variety of ionic solids with organic coordination environments are investigated using quadrupolar solid-state NMR experiments with an ultrahigh-field magnet (21.1 T). Two general research directions are presented including a 79/81Br solid-state NMR study of a series of 6 triphenylphosphonium bromides for which single-crystal X-ray structures are reported herein. A second research direction is also presented wherein alkaline-earth metal (25Mg, 43Ca, and 87Sr) solid-state NMR is used to characterize a systematic series of 16 aryl and alkyl carboxylates. In both studies, the quadrupolar nuclei studied are deemed zexoticy due to their unreceptive nature to NMR spectroscopic analysis including low natural abundances, large quadrupole moments, or low resonance frequencies. A variety of coordination modes to alkaline-earth metals, including N-atom coordination, are characterized herein for the first time using alkaline-earth metal solid-state NMR. In all cases, the electric field gradient (EFG) and chemical shift (CS) tensors are characterized and correlated to structural features such as interatomic distances measured from the crystal structure of the compound under study. In all of the projects undertaken herein, the gauge-including projector-augmented-wave density functional theory (GIPAW DFT) method is used, which allows for the prediction and rationalization of the experimental EFG and CS tensor parameters based on the input crystal structure. In the case of 43Ca solid-state NMR experiments reported in this dissertation, a linear correlation between the calculated and experimental 43Ca quadrupolar coupling constants, CQ, is used as a calibration curve for GIPAW DFT calculations performed on the 18 structural models currently available for the vaterite polymorph of CaCO3. Vaterite cannot be fully characterized by X-ray diffraction alone; therefore an NMR crystallography protocol is used in order to identify the model that best accounts for 43Ca solid-state NMR experiments performed on vaterite. It is expected that the conclusions from this dissertation can be used for future studies involving structural refinement and elucidation of solid materials containing challenging quadrupolar nuclei.

Download or read book Solid state Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy of Unreceptive Quadrupolar Nuclei in Inorganic Materials written by Andre Sutrisno and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preparation and characterization of inorganic materials is a crucial practice because understanding the relationship between structure and property is important for improving current performance and developing novel materials. Many metal centers in technologically and industrially important materials are unreceptive low- quadrupolar nuclei (i.e., possessing low natural abundance, low NMR frequencies and large quadrupole moments) and they usually give rise to very broad NMR resonances and low signal-to-noise ratios, making it difficult to acquire their solid-state NMR spectra. This thesis focuses on the characterization of inorganic materials using solid-state NMR (SSNMR) spectroscopy at very high magnetic field of 21.1 T in combination with quantum chemical calculations for computational modeling. In the first part of this thesis, 67Zn and 17O SSNMR studies of several microporous materials were reported. The results of 67Zn SSNMR studies from several important metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), in particular, zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) were presented. 67Zn SSNMR spectroscopy was used to gain structural information regarding the desolvation process in MOF-5. Furthermore, 67Zn SSNMR spectroscopy were utilized to study the host-guest interactions in ZIF-8 loaded with different guest molecules. Static 67Zn SSNMR spectra of microporous zinc phosphites (ZnP) and zinc phosphates (ZnPO) were also acquired at natural abundance. The Gaussian calculation results on a model cluster for ZnP indicate that Zn-O bond length is the most dominant factor to the observed quadrupolar coupling constant (CQ) among other geometric parameters around Zn centres. The local structures of the framework oxygen sites in molecular sieve SAPO-34 were directly probed by several 17O SSNMR techniques. The involvement of water vapor during the SAPO-34 formation in dry-gel conversion (DGC) synthesis was also investigated. In the second part, 91Zr and 33S SSNMR spectra of layered zirconium phosphates (ZrP) and transition metal disulfides (MS2) were obtained. The empirical correlations between NMR parameters and various structural parameters were used for obtaining partial structural information in Li+ and Co(NH3)63+ exchanged layered ZrP. For a series of closely related MS2 materials, the observed differences in the CQ(33S) values were rationalized by considering the difference in their geometrical arrangements. The final part of this thesis featured two examples of SSNMR spectroscopy of exotic nuclei in some interesting inorganic materials. (i) The experimental 135/137Ba SSNMR spectroscopy and theoretical studies of -BBO, an important non-linear optical (NLO) material, indicate that the true crystal structure of -BBO is R3c space group rather than R3. (ii) An ultrahigh field natural abundance 73Ge SSNMR study of two representative germanium containing materials [GeCl2-dioxane and GePh4] demonstrated that acquiring 73Ge wideline NMR spectra of germanium compounds where the Ge experiences an extremely large quadrupolar interaction is feasible and that the small 73Ge chemical shielding anisotropy (CSA) can be directly measured.

Book excerpt: The power of nuclear magnetic resonance, NMR, for characterizing molecules dissolved in solution is widely acknowledged and NMR forms an essential component of undergraduate chemistry degrees. However, the application of NMR to the solid state is much less well appreciated. This text sets out the fundamental principles of solid-state NMR, explaining how NMR in solids differs from that in solution, showing how the various interactions of NMR can be manipulated to yield high-resolution spectra and to give information on local structure and dynamics in solids. This book aims to take some of the mystique out of solid-state NMR by providing a comprehensible discussion of the methodology, including the basic concepts and a practical guide to implementation of the experiments. A basic knowledge of solution-state NMR is assumed and is only briefly covered. The text is intended for those in academia and industry expecting to use solid-state NMR in their research and looking for an accessible introduction to the field. It will also be valuable for non-experts interested in learning how NMR can be usefully applied to solid systems. Detailed mathematical treatments are delayed to a chapter at the mid-point of the text and can be skipped. Introductions to experiments and numerical simulations are provided to help link NMR results to experimental practice. The different aspects of solid-state NMR, from basic pulse-and-acquire experiments to sophisticated techniques for the measurement of anisotropy information are presented. Examples illustrate the wide variety of applications of the technique and its complementarity to other solid-state characterization techniques such as X-ray diffraction. Various aspects of NMR crystallography are covered as are topics of motion in solids.
